Heated Seat Coil Outline on Leather Seat
Hi, starting to get worried AGAIN. There is a heated seat marking on the front seat of the car. Its like an outline on the bottom cushion. Should I be concerned?

Safety concern If your VIN is before A703331 reference attached bulletin LI91.30-P-054637 and request goodwill replacement of seat heater. Original installed at production is defective and should be replaced with modified part.

Unfortunately your VIN is not within range nevertheless, I would be concerned. IMHO seat heater should be replaced. Discuss bulletin with service manager emphasizing safety concern possibly dealer will offer goodwill assistance consider replacing both 2128203198 (105 in diagram) & perimeter 2129064002 (100).

Since MB Canada is not offering much check with https://www.tc.gc.ca/en/services/roa...al-defect.html emphasizing safety defect “wiring problem that may lead to burning seat or worse, a fire” request their assistance to intervene with MB Canada. Ultimately you would like heating/cushions to both seats replaced.
